As we prepare to start Shootout XII, here is how we will handle games with teams that had coaches move out and will not be participating next season:
1. Since both Wisconsin schools were taken over by humans, those games will still count in the Shootout based on the merits of the game results. In other words, no forfeits will be declared.
2. Since the Wisconsin schools are still playing this Shootout, if one of them were to finish first, we will still recognize them as the winner and put them on the Wall of Champions.
3. The wailtlist team with the higher RPI at the end of the non-conference play period of Shootout XII will take the spot of the highest-seeded Wisconsin team for purposes of seeding the next Shootout. The lower RPI waitlist team will replace the lower-seeded Wisconsin team.
